Subject: A very accessible history of the British gas industry
I was looking for information about the conversion of the British gas supply from town gas to natural gas and was pointed to this book. This was a very accessible and interesting read that goes from the earliest days of gas lighting in the early 19th century, to the nationalised industry that it was at the time this book was written in the early 1980s. It also serves as a reminder of the huge differences of ethos between the then publicly-owned utilities of the post-war period, and the privatised industry that existed from 1986.
